Report to the Listeners
Valerie van Isler. Inierim General Manager
"Why are you speukiiii^ out against the war, Dr King? Why
are you joining the voices of dissent? Well, I have seven
major reasons for bringing the war into the field ofm\
moral vision..." — Martin Luther King, Jr.
As our Februar> Folio went to press — the day after
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.s birthday — the United States
had just launched one of the most massive aerial attacks in
history against the nation of Iraq. In yet another midnight
strike, hundreds of fighter bombers and cruise missiles
hit the major cities of Baghdad and Basra at 2:30 in the
morning. President Bush had authorized "Operation Desert
Storm" and started another war in the Middle East.
Throughout the chilling days when every diplomatic ini-
tiative, proposal or plan was frustrated by Washington or
Baghdad or others, the voices of peace, ignored by the
major media, began to break through the thundering silence
in this country and bring this conflict into the nation's field
of moral vision.
WBAI was here to bring you the call to conscience before
the guns began, after the firestorm in the desert started, and
\v hen the body bags began to come home. In fact, we have
taken a leadership role in this nation's community radio net-
work with our coverage of the Middle East in programs
like "The Stakes in the Gulf: The Countdown to War." This
national teach-in, sponsored by the Campaign for Peace,
featured the brilliant analyst Professor .Noam Chomsky,
renow ned scholar Professor Eqbal Ahmed, and author
Barbara Ehrenreich.
During these fateful days, we broadcast the "International
Forum on the Gulf Crisis" with former U.S. Attorney General
Ramsey Clark. British parliamentarian Sir Anthony Benn.
and scientist Professor .Michio Kaku. We began this pro-
gram with the words: "Ladies and gentlemen, the United
States has just bombed Iraq. ..and the war has started...."
We immediaiel) went to crisis mode with 24-hour coverage
and reporting from our sources in the Gulf — Jordan, Israel,
and the West Bank — and in Europe and around the world.
Many thousands of people in cities and towns all across
the United States and Canada were tuned in to WBAI radio
as we presented these special reports. And we went to
Washington to bring you live coverage of the demonstra-
tions at the White House and on Capitol Hill. Along the
way. we have conducted some of the best interviews on the
impact of this war on the lives of the people in the region
and at home. So miiny of you joined us in 1990 lor our
coverage of the U.S. invasion of Panama. Stay with us now
as we continue our comprehensive coverage of the Gulf
( risis. We will be here lor the duration....
This February, as we dedicate special programming
lor African American History month, we acknowledge the
enduring legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr and his
profound message of peace to all the world.

Saving the Audubon
by Peggy Dye
Activist and writer Peggy Dye is a self-described
"happv colunmist" on Emanations (Sundays. 8 :30PM I.
and a "fan of Shelton W'aldcn" ^VValden's Pond,
Mondays. 1:30AM: Wednesday Morning Show,
6:00AM). She is also a founding member of the Save
the Audubon Coalition.
Last February, 400 men and women, mostly in their
20s and mostly Black and Latino, stamped and cheered
in bitter cold streets in a march to launch a movement
aimed at saving the Audubon Ballroom from a devel-
opment plan that would erase it from Harlem.
The venerable but run-down Audubon and adjoin-
ing San luan Theater were once home to Black jazz
bands, Jewish vaudeville. Hispanic theater, and to the
founding of the Transit Workers Union. Their halls
were a rallving point for revolutionaries, such as
Puerto Rican nationalist Pedro Albizu Campos and
Malcolm X. In fact, it was in the ballroom that'
Malcolm X was assassinated 23 years ago.
To preserve the Audubon as an historic landmark
and cultural center, the Save the Audubon Coalition
(STAC) challenged the city and Columbia University
to scrap their plan for a gene-splicing, virus-snooping,
life-tinkering biotechnology park-for-profit on the
Audubon site and several others nearby. P'or almost a
year, our black-led yet integrated group — including
environmentalists. preser\'ationists. Columbia students.
and political activists — has organized and protested.
Some would say we've already won our battle and
should feel satisfied at having moved the immovable
at City Hall. Last August, at the eleventh hour of the
final meeting of the Board of Estimate, the Dinkins
administration hatched a deal to save the facade or a
slice of the Audubon Ballroom for a "Malcolm X mon-
ument" in the new biology factory.
The details have yet to be fixed. City press releases
talk about preserving 55 percent of the ballroom prop-
er, but language in the agreement between Columbia
and the city actually calls for saving whatever is
financially feasible. But with "fiscal crisis ' the words
of the dav, who knows what the city will deem feasible?
We do know that the city intends to provide rich
subsidies — about S30 million initially — to Columbia
and its partners in the development project.
Audubon partisans, although Black-led, are not
going to let our first Black mayor off the hook.
Occupving the ballroom on Election Day eve. youthful
members of STAC .sent Dinkins a letter stating, "While
countless numbers of our people go homeless, suffer
from inadequate health care and are subject to improp-
er education, we abhor the city of New York's finding
(monev) to underwrite the construction of an unnec-
essary and community-destabilizing facility."
STAC won't be placated by a slice of the Audubon.
Over Christmas week, our attorney at the Center for
Constitutional Rights filed suit against the city to kill
the entire project. The action has several grounds,
including charges that the city government has blocked
public commentary on the environmental impact state-
ment, and failed even to look at the public health haz-
ards of a biotechnology factory complex in an urban
center.
Six months before he died, Malcolm X spoke at the
Audubon. He called for a "cultural center in Harlem
which will include people of all ages in all the arts ...
covering the entire spectrum of Afro-American history
... [tol be a journey to our rediscovery of ourselves,
[to] unbrainwash an entire people."
As a Black woman, I celebrate our efforts over the
last year to act on Malcolm X's challenge. Reclaiming
the Audubon translates a global yearning for commu-
nity, self-identity, and culture into the leading lan-
guage of the city — real estate. The real bottom line in
the Audubon struggle is the commitment by the grass
roots to move with the higher power of the human spirit,
which transcends governments, knocks on the door of
politics-as-usual, and says: we dare to seek a richer way,
so we become all that we can be as free human beings.

From the
Program Director
by Andrew Philips
Since Spring, I have been working
with the Program Council; since
October 10th. we have discussed
changes based on my "ten page
memo", and atter due consideration
we will implement these changes as
of February 1st.
First, an update on some recent
changes. Wednesday evenings have
become "information night" with Ex-
plorations. The Zeitgeist Hour Off the
Hook. The Personal Computer Show,
and Earthwatch. This block of info-
technology programs is proving
popular among our listeners. New
York Collage, with Nancy Rodriguez,
has moved to Thursdays from 9—^
10:00PM, (except that the last
Thursday of each month will be a
special Live from the Nuyoncan
Poets' Cafe.) On Monday. Malachy
McCourt has replaced Al Angeloro in
the 4:30— 6:00PM Talkback I s\o\.
Saturday mornings, Lunchpail. with
Paul Gorman, will run from 10:30AM
to Noon, ending one half hour earlier.
Housing Notebook moves earlier
(Noon— 1 :00PM), and has graciously
yielded the last Saturday of the
month to Disabled in Action Speaks.
a community which deserves a
regular program on WBAI. Ed
Haber 's Piper in the Meadow Stray -
/ng follows from 1 :00— 2:30PM, while
the next hour will be set aside for
Women's programming. HearS Now.
from 3:30^:30, brings to our air
new composers and music seldom
heard elsewhere. Soundtracks and
The Golden Age of Radio, two
popular shows moved from Sunday,
should round out a strong Saturday
lineup.
On Sunday, Creative Unity moves to
10:30—12:30 at night, following
Emanations. They will alternate with
J Smooths Underground Railroad,
whose host, John Randolph, informs
us, "The media have fostered an
image of rappers as creven savages
whose words inspire gang violence.
Arenas have banned rap music, few rap
records get commercial airplay, and
recent puritanical crusades have
scared some stores into taking rap
records off the shelf. WBAI. always
promoted as the voice of the voiceless,
now will provide an outlet for African-
Amencan youths strongest voice." The
combination should work well; J
Smooth invites youth into our audience,
while Creative Unity presents radio
drama and ideas. From 1 :00AM. Syd-
ney Smith will return with Carrier Wave,
providing continuity of Live Radio in the
slot.
[Monday, while Margot Adier is on Sab-
batical, Peter Lamborn Wilson's
Moorish Orthodox Radio Crusade will
alternate with Betsy Lenke. from
11:45Pfv1— 1;30AM, while Danah Gef-
fen will alternate with Walden's Pond.
Tuesday, Bill Farrars Jazz SamplerW\\\
now alternate with Stolen Moments. We
need to keep Bill in our line-up, and this
is a reasonable compromise until fur-
ther work can be done. The final change
set at press time is on Friday, where
Jordyn Tyson's Unsung Heroesv/Wl now
alternate with the Black Rock Coalition.
I feel these program changes bring
more consistency and flow to our over-
all programming. We are beginning to
redress three major areas of weakness
in our lineup — Women's programming.
Arts, and youth-onented programs. Live
radio (46 hours) and music program-
ming (48 hours) comprise together
more than half of our programs, while
arts and public affairs are currently un-
derrepresented. I expect we will see
more shortening of programs to tighten
our format and permit more diversity in
our line-up.
In making program changes, the pro-
gram council, with the program director,
must consider the Pacifica mandate
and the perceived needs and desires of
our audience. Our objective is to create
the possibility for great programs to
reach the widest possible audience. As
a community radio station. WBAI is
obliged to build diversity and encourage
a wide variety of producers. Producers
are encouraged and welcome to attend
program council meetings each
Thursday.

As we enter the nineties, the Hip Hop nation
finds itself under assault from self-appointed
censors, media distortionists, and commer-
cial impostors like Vanilla Ice who saturate
the Pop market while the music's true inno-
vators remain unheard. Fonunately, WBAI
enters the decade on the frontlines of the bat-
tle to keep the music alive, with J Sinooth
(Hip Hop Radioactivist) smuggling two
hours of authentic underground sound over
the airwaves every other Sunday. Tonight's
premiere episode will feature our favorite

major events of the year in which Hip Hop

RING DA\ 1991
IN MEMORIAM:
GUNTER KOSSODO
11 APRIL 1918 - 14 NOVEMBER 1990
Twenty years ago, Gunter Kossodo
inherited me from a friend uho
said. "Keep an eye t)n the kid." In
his living room, I learned more
about what making music really
means than I had in music school.
We listened to fantastic perfor-
mances, thought, talked, debated...
After I did a couple of Ring
Days all by my lonesome. I decid-
ed it would be much more fun for
both you and me to invite Gunter
on the show. It has been.
Odd things sometimes hap-
pened, {"d call him with my idea
for the aspect or point of ^ie\^ I
thought v^e should delve into, and
Id usually find out he'd come up
A ilh the same idea. By the lime we
got into the studio, though (me at
the crack of dawn, he after
Kheingold), we usually had hashed
iliings out pretty thoroughly, in the
last moments, as the music ran out.
wc"d decide what the topic would
be for that commentary break.
What did we do during the music'.'

\crdi. World War Two.
Beethoven. The possibility of
World War Three. Oh, yes, and
Wagner. And ftxxl! You wouldn't
believe how much two people
could pack a^^a\.
We were completely isolated in
the control room. One momini;. we
walked out and were shocked to
find the ground covered with
snow. We went to my place and
talked till the rest of the world
woke up.
The last couple of years,
because of his health, I trekked to
his place with my trusty equip-
ment, edited the tapes, and gave
him the opportunity to hear him-
self on the air. I won"t tell you
what he called me when I played
Melchior's forging scene after the
tenor of the day just managed to
get through it.
When Vlelchior was brought up
in comparison to another singer,
Gunter would say, "Ja, ja. OK, but
lei"s speak of human beings."
Gunter Kossodo was human
enough to wear out and die. Yes. it
was too soon.
-Someone asked me with whom
I planned to replace him. No, I
didn't sock him, but I was (if you
can imagine it) speechless.
Replace? Impossible.
For this year's Ring Day, I've
rounded up all the commentary
tapes that I can find from past
years and will play the best ones
for you. This will be a very special
Ring Day and the last one that will
feature throughout the day m\
friend Gunter Kosstxlo.

On July 26. 1990. President Bush signed
into law the most sitinificant piece of
civil rights lcgisl;itioii c\ cr brought forth
for disabled .■Xmcricans. The Americans
with Disabilities Act (ADA) not only
protects the rights of people with dis-
abilities, but provides ihcm with ammu-
nition to fight discrimliKition on all
levels. The ADA also covers public ac-
commodations and services, telecom-
munication and employment.
In this first part of a .^-part series, host
Lynn ,'\lbin and guests take an in-depth
look at the ADA and its ramifications for
disabled Americans. Mike Auberger.
co-founder of the national tiisahility
rights group AD.\PT. will discuss last
March's protests in which i(i4 disabled
activi.sts took over the Capitol Rotunda
and a congrcssmemlx.'r's office in a final
effort to have the ADA passed by the
House of Rcprescnialives before it
recessed. Marilyn Goldin. policy analyst
for the Disability Rights Education &
Defense Fund. Inc.. will address the
public accommodations segment of the
law, which inckulcs theaters, hotels, a's-
i.iiir, lilts. .111(1 prolessidiuil services.

Dear Max Schmid
Your program. The Golden Age of
Radio. IS one I look fon«ard to every
Sunday since I don't own a TV. and
don t care to. I am troubled by your
Jack Benny series which includes
Rochester, a stereotyped Afro-Amer-
ican boss lackey. In this day and age.
when racism runs high in the media
and stereotypes sucn as the aforemen-
tioned are gone with the wind, this pro-
gram has no place on WBAI. which
justly prides itself on being progres-
sive, multi-national, multi-raciar and
anti-biased.
Don't let your listeners down. Max.
An old timer who well remembers
the golden age of radio.
B. Umpell NYC
Dear Mr Schmid.
I am not among those who think
"Rochester Anderson s character is
pure stereotype on Jack Benny's radio
program Jacx made sure that Rochester
was treated the same as every other
cast member, and also made nis char-
acter a lot smarter than Jack's. If there
are any listeners who object to the
way Rochester was depicted, it was
those few lines about gambling (crap
games) and mild sex jokes [ "Mr Benny,
did you ever see a Hershey bar with
all tne almonds m the right places'' "]
that cause Rochester to sound offen-
sive' today In that respect, he was no
more offensive that way than Phil
Harris s supposed drinking and il-
literacy, and Dennis Day s gullibility
and idiocy. In other words, a charac-
ter role, not to be taken too seriously
during a radio show

Dear WBAI.
Happy New Year! I would like to
make a request for 1991 . On behalf of
the hundreds of fine musicians whose
music you play on WBAI. I would ask
you to give them the honor and
raspecfthey are due by nam/ng them.
Of course, when a program is about
music or a musician, you are careful to
identify them, but 1 am constantly dis-
mayed at the many times you use
music as a 'Uller' between segments
without having the courtesy to say.
"That was... "It only takes a moment.
Tm a musician and ethnomusic-
ologist and I have been made aware '
over the years of how Western
anthropologists have used non-western
sources shamelessly, recording them
and selling records without compensa-
tion to the artist or even identification.
It makes me cringe when I hear a
progressive station like BAI doing the
same thing. I also believe that the
anonymity denigrates the music itself —
the care and passion and hard work of
a musician should not be chopped into
little anonymous bits and stufred
between "important"" programs.
Backtalk!
Sincerely
(Ms.) Toby Glukman

Dear Backtalk.
During every marathon, we are fre-
quently reminded of how iniportant we
listener-members are to WBAI's con-
tinued operation and how much the
station values us.
The annual hassle to collect our
premium certainly has made us
wonder, but the insult to our intel-
ligence delivered on December 11
reached some new kind of low.
Episodes of the ZPPR series "Visit
New Grimston Anyway" have too often
turned up missing at air time, but on
that date, the sound faded down and
disappeared, obviously before the
episode ended.
At that point, the station was five
minutes behind schedule, but that was
no fault of this taped production.
Rather it resulted because. ..the host of
the previous program lacked the nerve
to cut off a talkative caller and sign off
on time.
There aren t words enough in the
dictionary to describe such a trashing
of a show some of us had expected to
hear in its entirety. Heres a sample,
however: rude, inconsiderate, con-
temptuous and contemptible, unprofes-
sional, bush-league, cheesy ana slimy,
culturally barbanc. nitwitted, moronic,
cretinous, etc.
Such censorship — which is what
this amounts to, even if caused by
incompetence instead of malice — is
totally hypocritical on the part of a
station tnat touts itself as free-speech
radio. Listeners deserve an apology.
Angnly yours.

Dear WBAI.
Enclosed is my check for $10.00
as I pledged. Ive been glued to WBAI
since the upheavals in the Eastern
Bloc of Europe. I have also been an
avid listener since the station originated.
I cant imagine life without WBAI;
same goes for my family. We are
original subscrltjers.
I didnt mind the pitching this time
because it was accompanied by infor-
mation, and your pitchers are delight-
ful, hard-working personalities. Jenny,
Amy, and Julie are so delicious and
capable. And Samori, Valerie and the
others of the news and political staff —
Leo Cawley, Robert Knight, Dennis —
such brilliance and dedication; and the
good Bob Pass and Carletta — I could
go on and on; we love you all.
Down with the imperialists!
Love, B Beyer

PS. Jenny Bourne has such a
beautiful voice; is she a singer?
Dear Andrew Phillips:
I am a listener and subscriber of
long-standing, and have been a heavy
supporter since 1974-75 or so. I used
to eat. sleep, breathe BAI and could
not get enough of it. Nowadays, unfor-
tunately. I listen only infrequently: to
Simon Loekle when I am awake: to
Margot Adler. when she is there; and
to fvlike Feder. Little by little. I have
given up on WBAI. (I cannot tell you
to how many station managers and
program directors I have written, with
no result at all.)
Recently, I tuned in during an
11 :45PM- 1:00AM program and heard
Sidney Smith substituting lor Margot.
For the first time in many years, I Telt a
spark of hope: Sidney was charming,
literate, interesting, had a balanced
point of view, and lots of compassion,
(qualities that 1 have not heard much
on BAI for these few years) and a
pleasant voice as well.
I tried to speak to him during the
whole 1-14 hours, but was unable to
get through Judging by the response,
f was only one of many who were
taken by Sidney and his thoroughly
professional program.
I am therefore hoping that you will
give Sidney Smith a talk spot of his
own. so he can attempt to bring back
some of the glory that was BAI in its
heyday.
PRETTY PLEASE"'
Sincerely,
EvaS
